Hey guys. S!Did anyone preorder the DVD?If you did, who did you preorder from? Couple of options available.I can't decide if I should just wait for the download options which should be available next week - or preorder from Europe.It seems to me that the d/l could take care of the "immediate gratification" part and perhaps on US release local stores might carry the DVD sometime after Xmas.Thanks,GunnyBlack 2 TX Flight Leader

Gunslinger, what options for backup do you have if you download it? Remember the boonty box pe2 patch? WTF good is that after a reformat?Cuda, I am looking at my row of boxes on my shelf wondering what to do. I reformatted and I am looking at a stack of disks and patches, which would take a very long time to install. My only point of angst, with an otherwise superb sim, is one of legacy. With the complicated installation of various disks / patches and the undisclosed secret location of a cult like congregation known as HL, I wonder how new Luftwaffers make their way in to the club. This DVD should take care of that. If I can install and go then I will be happy to wait for US delivery. Have you ever gone to the store and found it sold out on the release date?

Good point, King...... Have good backup solution, though. Anyway, I agree wholeheartedly, I'm going to pick up a couple of those DVD's to give to friends. The patching + version thing is daunting to newcomers.S~ and Warm RegardsGBlack 2 TX Flight Leader

I've had my order cancelled two times from GoGamer. . .maybe the third time is the charm. . .edit: cancelled again, I had to call GoGamer and have them enter it manuallyedit again: it wasn't gogamer's fault, Davis has changed the zip code for my area and didn't feel the need to tell us. Jason at GoGamer has worked hard at resolving this though, and has expedited shipping to make up for the repeated cancellations of my order even though it wasn't GoGamer's fault.S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO

Just ordered my copy today. I'm looking forward to shooting you guys down in the near future, now that my computer has a new lease on life! I finally took Eco's suggestion that it's generally not a good idea to run one's obsolete onboard video card simultaneosly with an add-on card. I figured that since the games I use are "only" using the PCI-e card... it didn't really matter... Well, a couple days ago, I disabled my onboard video, and WOW... FSX and IL-2's frame rates have more than DOUBLED!!!--even my load times on FSX (which often took over 3 minutes) takes less than 30 seconds now! So, thanks Eco once again for some good advise.I've also ordered the Matrox Tripple Head thingy... next on my list is to actually get that TrackIR thing... and then maybe some decent monitors...TX-ScubaSteveWhite 4
